Xiaomi, the Chinese electronics and lifestyle brand, has been making waves in the e-mobility sector with its impressive lineup of e-scooters and electric bicycles. Now, the company is taking things to the next level with the release of its newest high-power e-scooter, the 4 Ultra. Sitting at the top of Xiaomi’s electric scooter lineup, the 4 Ultra offers a more premium experience than its predecessor, the 4 Pro. It features a more powerful motor, longer range, and a front and rear suspension system for a smoother ride. The 10-inch wheels are shod in DuraGel tires that are wider than those of the 4 Pro and offer puncture-resistance and self-sealing technology.
The 4 Ultra also ups the ante in terms of performance. With nearly one kilowatt (940 watts) of peak power, it churns out more than enough power for most urban riders. It does this through a 500W hub motor mated to a controller that offers four riding modes—pedestrian, standard, sport, and sport plus. Nevertheless, top speed remains capped at 15.6 miles per hour (25 kilometers per hour). To ensure respectable range, Xiaomi had to fit a larger battery to the 4 Ultra. Thanks to a new 561-watt-hour battery pack housed within the floorboard, the scooter can travel a claimed 44 miles (70 kilometers) on a single charge. It comes packaged with a small 2-amp charger, and thus, takes quite a long time to charge—six-and-a-half hours, according to reports.
The 4 Ultra is no lightweight machine, weighing in at 25 kilograms. However, it’s much cheaper than most other e-bikes, retailing for the equivalent of $1,068 USD, or 999 Euros. The Xiaomi Electric Scooter 4 Ultra is expected to hit stores in April 2023. With its powerful motor, long range, and comfortable ride, the 4 Ultra is sure to be a hit with urban commuters looking for an affordable and reliable way to get around town.
